There was a bit of news sometime back that a 1350 mAh battery was compatible with the satio.

I agree that the battery capacity is not very impressing, but I believe that there are several things you can do to reduce the power consumption. For example, shorten the timeout before the backlight turns off, turn off the GPS and the WiFi radio if you don't use it for the moment, etc.
It would have been nice to be able to control such things with the profile settings.

There was no 1350mAh battery. Even the BST-40 (which I don't think will fit) isn't that high capacity.
The BST-33 has gone from 920 to 950 to 1000mAh over the years, but the jump to 1350 is far too much.

There have been a few people who've purchased 1200 mAh batteries for their Satios, non-branded of course, but haven't heard any results of them yet as to how good they are performing. TBH I think if I had a 1200 (if they perform) given my personal usage of the Satio I'd still be charging my Satio up every night still (and by at least 8 pm ).
Rumours were banging around about SE staff having 1300 mAh with theirs ... but to be honest I've seen no pictures / proof that would quench my doubts.
Also it did seem that a few Satios were going out with 900 mAh batteries, again not seen but it has been posted by some Vodafone Satio users. For me ... I've got a bog standard 1000 mAh.

Hey Milan. Yes in SA you should get the 1000Mah - LiPo battery. And I know that Vodafone brands them in the UK so the chances are good that we'll get that in SA too

I'm also considering the Satio but I'm waiting to see if the phone becomes more stable after the first Update, otherwise the Hero will be mine

Yea im also waiting for the new software...The Satio is awesome phone and the lagging is software related so it can always get sorted out..there is not many hardware issues(lack of internal memory) so its fyn...they can also impove battery life through the software like they did with the K850...new software is imminent...it seems its in testing. I belive the software issues were due to sony rushing the phone and their lack of experience dealing with s60 v5 OS...I belive the sony will make this phone the way it supposed to be...jus have patience

I think that's unfair. In february at the presentation of Satio, SE man said that battery will be 1350mah, now they r selling it with 1000. Another promises from SE that grows our hearts.
